Tutorial:

Let’s get started on creating a custom intro that reflects the energy of Dreamworks Turbo using Adobe After Effects.

1. Acquire the Template: First step, download the Dreamworks Turbo intro template. After downloading, use a program like WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract the files from the archive.
2. Navigate to the Active Composition: Open Adobe After Effects and open the template file by navigating to ‘File’ > ‘Open’  Locate the composition named ‘Title’—this is where the magic happens. Within this active composition, you’ll find the layers that make up the main text.
3. Edit all the Single Text Layers: Among these layers, click each letter and double-click to edit the text. Replace it with your desired text, ensuring it fits well within the animation of the intro.
4. Navigate to the ‘Dreamworks Turbo’ Composition: Go to the composition and edit the ‘Subtitle’ layer. You can also delete the subtitle in case you don’t want one.
5. Customization: Feel free to change any other editable elements or colors.
6. Rendering Your Masterpiece: With your custom text set, it’s time to bring your creation to life. You can render your intro directly in After Effects by adding it to the Render Queue by going to ‘Composition’ > ‘Add to Render Queue’, and choosing the H.264 format for optimal balance between quality and file size. If you prefer, use the Adobe Media Encoder for more format options and to render in the background as you continue to work.

Following these steps, you can create an intro that combines the iconic Dreamworks Turbo style with your unique flair. This is the beauty of modern content creation: blending classic inspiration with your original concepts to tell a story that’s entirely your own.
